AnswerClick to flip back
A
Deccan
💡 Explanation:
After capturing the Ganges Valley (Magadha), Chandragupta Maurya conquered most of the Deccan peninsula, extending Mauryan control southward. The Indus River Valley was already under his control from the northwest, while the Western Ghats and Hindu Kush were geographical features/frontiers, not regions he conquered after the Ganges Valley.
